Szekszárd Szívem Kékfrankos 2020 Heimann & Fiai

Overview

Jancis Robinson, Master of Wine on vintage 2019: Discreet but very intriguing on the nose, revealing notes of ripe fruit, tea leaves, cocoa beans and cumin seeds. On the palate it is instead very intense: mulberries, black pepper and ink set in a very dense and concentrated structure. The tannic texture is very fine, tailored like a tailor-made suit. A profile that suggests the potential and suggests opening not before a couple of years. Over time, for example, the sweetness of mulberries emerges on the palate and emotions are strengthened.
